Thanks! I can pull the Docker image now. However, I’m having trouble starting the container—my NAS only has 12GB of RAM, which might not be enough.

It's happened again. Checked the dashboard this time and it is indeed playing through the universal Android app. Doesn't seem to be playing an album, this time...it started midway through “I Did Something Bad” from Reputation and has now moved on to “Love Story” from Fearless. Might be one of my music playlists, though, which was the last thing I was doing on Emby from a music playback perspective but I've watched a dozen movies since then so it doesn't make much sense. This is also the first time I've used Beamafilm since the last time I had this issue, so it does seem to be some sort of interaction with Beamafilm specifically. I rebooted the server. It was in the middle of “Love Story” when it shut down, and when it booted up it immediately started playing “no body, no crime.” I'm unable to control playback from the dashboard. embyserver.txt embyserver-63925689323.txt

Hi, I am consistently getting the error "Too many errors - giving up" on playback on my firesticks. This does not happen via Browser playback, Androif phone playback or Samsung TV app playback. In the past month, I have turned in automatic subtitle downloading from Opensubtitles and Add1cted. Perhaps it is related to that. Please see log file from failed playback this morning Many thanks

with cpu only solve on severance show, but for this show, another problem : credits-detection-debug-2026-09-22T07-39-28.log

It really makes no sense that EHS isn't supported with the fullscreen spotlight display. As it is now, when I scroll down to the next row I get this: Which makes no sense at all. That top area could easily be used for EHS. Having it display the info for the spotlight, and not for the movie I have selected, is just confusing. Further, if I then press the up arrow on the remote, it focuses the spotlight but doesn't scroll back up to it:

Can't say I'm seeing that, version .60 on a Shield (to a Samsung soundbar to a Sony TV if it matters).

Okay now that I have the full-screen spotlight back...the translucent backdrop issue is still occurring. Click on the info button in the spotlight to go to the item details screen of the spotlighted title. Press the back button to return to the home screen without refreshing it. When the spotlight scrolls to the next film, the backdrop of the film whose item details screen you went to will still be visible, overlaying the backdrop of the newly-spotlighted item.

Oh, sorry, this is a log embyserver.txt

Actually I think your issue is probably this: So please follow that topic. Thanks.

Hi! Yes sir, it have installed it on my Docker, when doing a first scan it gave something like 10 or so errors so the scan wasnt succseful. From what i can gather these errors come from NFO:s missing a studio-tag. Will have another go at it shortly. Thanx!

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred: How to Report a Problem Thanks!

But all that does is let you change the interval. It’s not an option to disable anything.

Hi. The option was added during 4.9 releases.

Ah yes true lol..well opening the domain works.

OK I would suggest updating to Emby Server 4.9 or later.

Hi, what exactly happens the second time?

Thank you it worked. But unfortunately it only worked once with the app. In a second run the app does not connect properly anymore. I can gladly share a photo later on. My workaround is using emby with the https address over the internet browser now. That works fine, but I have to control it with a mouse cursor via tv remote.

Hello Emby team, I am experiencing a PathTooLongException when Emby scans a media library on Linux. After investigating the issue, I found a previous Emby community thread that appears to be very similar to my case: Docker/Fedora 41 - Too long path error (actually it's not) https://emby.media/community/topic/137639-dockerfedora-41-too-long-path-error-actually-its-not/ My environment: Emby Server: 4.10.0.40 OS: Linux .NET: 8.0.28 Docker deployment Architecture: x86_64 The error is: System.IO.PathTooLongException: The path '/115_media/Media Library/GHS Media/Normal/雄神YUU' is too long, or a component of the specified path is too long. at System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator`1.MoveNext() at System.Collections.Generic.LargeArrayBuilder`1.AddRange(IEnumerable`1 items) at System.Collections.Generic.EnumerableHelpers.ToArray[T](IEnumerable`1 source) at Emby.Server.Implementations.IO.ManagedFileSystem.EnumerateFileSystemInfos(...) at Emby.Server.Implementations.IO.ManagedFileSystem.GetFileSystemEntries(...) at MediaBrowser.Controller.Providers.DirectoryService.GetFileSystemEntriesInternal(...) What makes this interesting is that Linux itself can access the directory normally. For example, inside the Emby container: ls -la "/115_media/Media Library/GHS Media/Normal/雄神YUU" works correctly and lists the files. The problem appears to be related to the length of individual filenames rather than the total Linux filesystem path. I measured the UTF-8 byte length of the .strm filenames and found many filenames between approximately 400 and 687 bytes. For example: 687 bytes 679 bytes 677 bytes 675 bytes ... The filenames contain a large amount of Chinese/other non-ASCII Unicode characters. The previous community thread mentioned above appears to have found that truncating filenames to approximately 255 bytes avoids the problem. However, renaming the files is not a practical solution for my setup. These are automatically generated .strm files and changing their filenames would affect my existing media library/NFO matching. My question is: Is this still a known limitation/bug in the Linux version of Emby? More specifically: Is there a recommended workaround that does not require renaming the files? Has this issue been fixed or changed in a newer Emby version? Could Emby handle this exception during directory enumeration so that files with long UTF-8 filenames do not prevent the rest of the directory from being scanned? Is there a plan to support filenames longer than approximately 255 UTF-8 bytes on Linux? The fact that Linux can enumerate the files normally with ls, while Emby's .NET System.IO.Enumeration.FileSystemEnumerator throws PathTooLongException, makes me suspect this is related to the .NET/Emby filesystem enumeration layer rather than an actual Linux filesystem path limitation. Any guidance from the development team would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Luke, Thanks for following up. Yes, I'm still having the issue and I've tried a few different things to see if that would work with no luck. My Emby server is on 4.10.0.40, iOS app is 2.2.58. I run the server on a Synology 1621+, so I tried new servers on Ubuntu & Windows. No music would play through the iOS app, but could play music through my browser. Tried installing Netbird rather than Tailscale. Same results. Tried moving the music location from the Synology server to locally on Windows. Nothing still. Lastly, tried accessing my Emby server through jellybox rather than the Emby app and wasn't successful there either. So I've run out of ideas pretty much at this stage, unless there is something with the phone itself.

Where is that setting? Haven’t changed anything one way or another since I upgraded.

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred: How to Report a Problem Thanks!

I upgraded to 4.10 yesterday and seeing the same issue with the sidebar disappearing in Edge, just like OP I have to hit refresh to get it to come back. I am also occasionally getting the admin dashboard on top of the home screen when clicking the gear icon. @LukeHere is a screenshot mate, when you hit the gear icon it goes back to admin with no side panel, hitting the sidebar icon slides out a blank panel.

Well, Spotlight and slideshow fixes are much more important, didn't you know?

Started testing in May 2020 far as I can see. Impressive, no ?
